We are now introducing zero tolerance approach towards all types of exploits and hacks (and yes, this includes the black colour, so please don't moan about it in comments, it may be added later to the palette). Anyone caught using inspect element, javascript, link hacking, XSS, you name it - will initially be banned for one week. If you get caught for the second time - you WILL be banned for life. No excuses, no exceptions. Thank you very much, please play fair!

New Moderator
A lot has been happening lately on atWar. We have a new moderator, Sid. Congratulations Sid, you're a great member of the community and make a great addition to the moderator team.

atWar Strike
As you've all known by now, someone has been DDoSing the game non stop for almost two weeks now. Due to these attacks many players have not been able to play atWar, which resulted in a strike being made by popular user Mauzer Panteri. Mauzer made a post calling for a strike against atWar as he was fed up and frustrated with the constant DDoS attacks and lack of action from the administrators. His post, which currently has 74 upvotes and over 300 posts, was met with a lot of praise from atWar users who were also upset with the way atWar was being dealt with. The post may be viewed as a positive thing, as Amok appeared and commented on the post.

We are currently looking for people to help us with game development!
Successful candidates will get access to the game source code and will be in charge of things like fixing existing bugs and adding new features and improvements to atWar.
The main technologies we use for the game are JavaScript, C#, PHP and MySQL.

We are looking for developers who know both JavaScript and C# on at least an intermediate to high level. Which means no script kiddies, thanks, but someone who actually worked on a project of a significant scale. Please don't bother PMing if you have just started learning these languages and haven't completed any real world projects.

If you believe that you have enough expertise in this area, please PM me your CV (don't worry, it will be kept private), ideally with your most recent portfolio.
Along with this, we kindly ask you to complete a simply test task, which involves the following:

Today I had the privilege to talk to Ivan, atWar administrator, about atWar. I asked him what he thought about the fact using inspect element to use the black color is worth a ban, and in his own words he responded with, ''I personally don't think it's ban worthy''. At the moment a moderator has the right to ban any users who does this, and many think this is a ridiculous rule. With permission from Ivan, I am creating a poll to see whether or not the community believes this should be ban worthy. Rules will be changed depending on the outcome of this poll.

atWar News
This week has hosted an intense round of Coalition Wars between multiple clans, all of whom are battling out it out for first place. With Enigma, Mortal Kombat, Mystics and Epic clan occupying the top 4 spots currently, it could go either way. The season will end on Midnight Thursday, leaving only 3 days left to clinch 1st. You can view the leaderboards here and keep track for yourself. Who do you think will win?

atWar News
This week began with the first rounds of numerous tournaments commencing, including the 1v1 5K, Ancient World Westm and the Master of Europe tournaments. These can be found in the tournaments sub-section of the forum.

On the competitive side of the game, Epic Clan hold first place on the leader board by a significant margin, followed by Mystics and Enigma who are very close. The Aristokrats lost multiple members this week, leaving the future of the clan uncertain. Will this once great clan return to its former glory?Community Update
This week, we've got to speak with Sascha, leader from Mystics. He is not very known in community, so we wanted to hear his voice about his clan, and general state of atWar.

atWar News
A loss for the competitive scene of atWar, The Immortals have been declared dead by their founder Cold Case in a thread where he showed appreciation to his fellow clan members and other respectable clans that they have faced. Lets see what is in store for the departed members of the clan in the future.

Due to the recent elo farming and the elo point system becoming devalued, it has been decided by the moderators to ban duels created with alternative secondary accounts, due to the disparity between skill and rank level being played, holding an unfair advantage over equal rank players who do not posses as much experience. Duels will start to be deleted over the coming weeks where there is proof of alt accounts being used. Where a low rank player is demonstrating op skill and using a vpn or claims to be using a shared user IP address, action will be decided on a case by case basis.
Going forward, punishments may be awarded to players who continue to break the new rules, updates to the rules will follow.

atWar News
There has been speculations that Amok, the main developer of this game, has 'given up' on atWar. This was brought to light by a post made by Critical (Chicken Man). Sir Hellykin then explains to the community in the comments of the current situation regarding Amok and atWar: basically that Amok has no time to continuing developing for atWar currently, and that Ivan is learning HTML5 to continue where Amok has left off. Ivan is also working with Pulse (a moderator) to fix some of the code.

Update 13/06/17
It has been confirmed by moderator Brianwl that the correct trophy order is as follows: #1 Illyria, #2 Epic Clan, #3 Mortal Kombat. The moderators have stripped the Aristokrat of their trophy. However, at the moment the only administrator that can remove trophies is Amok, as there is a bug in the admin permissions and the elo calculation. When the farmed games were removed, elo was removed from the summer season, not the spring season.

atWar News
A new season has begun, congratulations to Epic Clan for stopping Aristokrats's winning streak, as Epic Clan were 1st place last season. So far we see Illyria first, Aristokrats second and the newly created clan Hybrid Warfare at third place. The well respected clan, Mortal Kombat, has also been revived for this season. They are currently at 4th place, with a total of 10 clan wars so far. Mystics have also returned as well, although they do not appear to be active in the CW field.
